Some of you may be as obsessive as I am when checking your subscriber totals on a daily basis? and to tell you the truth, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this! So, why the drop in subs on your YouTube channel?
Actually… It’s all about cleaning house!
YouTube has announced that they have just added a new automated feature to clean up the subscribers count on your YouTube channel.
Removing spam accounts helps to keep YouTube “a fair playing field” for creators, since they can artificially increase a channel’s subscriber count. Its unclear how many channels will be affected, but YouTube does want people to prepare for a decline.
They want the numbers to stay meaningful and accurate for advertisers. This means, better advertisers… more money.
